- CAN YOU TELL US A LITTLE ABOUT THE CHARACTERS?
To
start, Trevor of course was far different in the first draft, he was originally
from a poor family and was unseen by his town. He was generous and sweet and he
had two sisters. But something told me to make him spoiled and arrogant, I kind
of like those characters more because I feel like they have more to learn.
Then
we have Arjan, the gentle giant of a Siren who we learn about in the first few
chapters of the book. He will have a prequel coming out soon so you can learn
even more about him. Arjan originally had a very tiny role in the story but as
time went on, and I crafted his backstory, I fell in love with the character
and I think most people will too!
Lastly, I’ll talk about Labyrinth, Labyrinth is a lot of fun to write! He’s very child-like and his innocence is refreshing compared to Trevor’s brash arrogance. His design was fun to imagine as well and I can’t wait to write more about him in the next few books.
- TELL US ABOUT YOUR FAVORITE CHARACTER FROM A BOOK:
Okay,
so, he doesn’t originate from a book but he’s in a few and it’s Luke Skywalker.
I think he’s my favorite fictional character ever and I do aspire to write a
character like him one day.
I
think he’s one of the best examples of great development as he went from a
nerdy farm boy to a powerful Jedi and he didn’t feel out of character by Return
of the Jedi.
This is something I’m striving to accomplish with Trevor; he has a lot to learn and no one wants to see him become all-powerful overnight, they want to join him on his journey as he learns about himself and how to use his abilities (which you’ll learn of in the series :D)
